What if kills no longer gave gold?

sobi999·Jan 22, 2017·1 votes·453 views

Everyone is moaning about balance changes in the game, while it's impossible to perfect balance there might be ways to substantially increase balanced gameplays. What do you think about no gold for kills? I just thought that every guy out there is spreading toxic " mid/top/bot fed this" and then calls for surrender. The whole game they are arguing over who fed who and it just gets annoying. On top of that, one man carry just doesn't feel like a team oriented game. Maybe riot could increase re-spawn time so that not everyone just feeds their asses.

Everyone gets money per second and etc. I know this will take ages to earn lets say the usual 10k-15k that you need to finish build but riot could simply reduce gold price for all items by lets say 50-70% or something. There'll be alot less toxic this way, I believe.

Plz don't rage at me for the opinion, was just curious of what you guys think? :D

Then what will be the point of playing a early game champion?

Just thought this way it'll reduce the effect of champs that carry hard once fed. Then it's 1v5 usually and not 5v5. Early champs could get buffs to compensate but atleast you wouldn't have to suffer because you had a team mate that fed the enemy. Higher elo's usually don't feed so they don't have to worry about this. There is toxic everywhere because of this feeding issue and it's putting people off from playing.

The champions that hard Carry are typically lake game champions that get early kills like the Most Real early game champions are pretty healthy just annoying

Removing kill the gold will only make the late game champions the only champions you can play

How is he not?

The complaints about feeders would just turn into complaints about dieing. Those that die a lot still miss out on cs and exp and will be less useful in fights, plus every time they die the other laner is free to roam and influence other lanes, people will just cry about that instead.

Yh that's what i am saying. I know you don't agree with me but what you said kinda does. A player who gets a kill should be rewarded hence (gold) is the reward currently but all those things that you mentioned that a player could do whilst his lane enemy is dead is also a type of reward. I mean, that way the more you die the quicker the enemy team will get turrets and in team fights it would be 4v5 instead. Also this is what you do in team fights as well (try to get ace to take down turrets) usually.

This post was only an idea/opinion to make the game a bit less toxic (not that it's uncontrollably toxic or anything), the down votes are really not necessary. You either agree or disagree, for me a downvote is something that offends me but every one is entitled to their opinions i guess.

There is no reason to get offended by down votes, its nothing personal against you. Votes are just a system that exists on this forum that ties in with post visibility and general board opinion. It's more for Riot's sake then our own.

There is also no way to tell from my earlier post if I was for or against your idea, I'm just adding my own voice in the mix and expressing what I see as a possible consequence to a change like this. As in the whining would not stop or go down, it would just change its tune about what they are crying about.

But I have given this idea of yours more thought after I made my earlier post and I'd rather not see the gold component changed, I wouldn't want to see this game turn into a Heroes of the Storm clone, or adapt its far too casual play style, at least too casual for my liking.

EDIT: I hadn't even down voted your topic before, but now I have. Your welcome. XD

yeah then everyone goes tp and just farms all game long. fights wont be worth it cause you loose farming time

Then bronze and silver players games will take 2 hours since all they want are kills and no objectives.

at this point it doesn't give enough xp early game, one can be 2-0 pre 6 because of a lil roaming but can be underleveled because others kept farming. Not having the gold either would seriously cripple early champs.

Makes kills super unrewarding and kills are one of the most fun parts of the game. Playing optimally would mean spending way more time simply ignoring the enemy for the purposes of cs'ing more for extremely boring stalemate lanes. But most people wouldn't actually play optimally and still play almost the same way they do now and pursue kills, but it will be at a massive detriment to the team as they fall behind in gold and become incredibly weak.
